Crane Wind Sensors Monitor Wind Speed to Keep Workers Safe at Heights
Safety is of utmost importance when it comes to working in cranes at height. Etesian wind sensors are used throughout the crane industry as a way of measuring and monitoring wind speed. This allows the crane operator to follow safety regulations when wind speeds exceed specified rates. Workers around the crane can also be notified to get to the ground safely during wind out conditions.
Excess wind speeds are one of the most common causes of job site injuries in the crane and construction industry. OSHA reports have consistently shown a sharp decline in fatalities on construction projects that apply wind monitoring devices. Using our high quality wind sensors/anemometers helps take the risk out of weather events that occur while working at height.
Our anemometer package for cranes includes a swivel-mount for the wireless 3-cup anemometer that mounts at the tip of the boom and transmits wind speed data to a control display mounted in the cab of the crane. The anemometer must be mounted at the tip of the boom so that it measures unobstructed windspeed (click here for technical analysis)
